A lignocresol derivative from bamboo (lig-8) exhibited a potent neuroprotective activity against hydrogen peroxide (H 2O 2)-induced apoptosis in human neuroblastoma cell line SH-SY5Y by preventing the caspase-3 activation via either caspase-8 or caspase-9. Approaches to protection against neurodegenerative diseases, in which oxidative stress and inflammation are implicated, should be based on the current concept on the etiology of these diseases. Recently, a new therapeutic strategy has been proposed to protect neurons from cell death by attenuating the apoptotic signal transduction. Lignin, a durable aromatic network polymer second to cellulose in abundance, was able to be converted into highly active lignophenol derivatives with antioxidant activity by using our newly developed phase-separation technique. These lignophenol derivatives were found to show the potent neuroprotective activity against oxidative stress. Among the compounds examined, a lignocresol derivative from bamboo (lig-8) exhibited the most potent neuroprotective activity against hydrogen peroxide (H 2O 2)-induced apoptosis in human neuroblastoma cell line SH-SY5Y by preventing the caspase-3 activation via either caspase-8 or caspase-9. Furthermore, it was found that lig-8 exerted the antiapoptotic effect by inhibiting dissipation of the mitochondrial membrane permeability transition induced by H 2O 2 or by the peripheral benzodiazepin receptor ligand PK11195. Lig-8 was also shown to be potent in the antioxidant activity in the cells exposed to H 2O 2, as assessed by flow cytometry using 5-(and-6)-chloromethyl-2′,7′- dichlorodihydrofluorescein diacetate and in vitro reactive oxygen species-scavenging potency. These data suggest that lig-8 is a promising neuroprotector, which affects the signaling pathway of neuronal cell death and that it would be of benefit to delay the progress of neurodegenerative diseases.
